Risking Their Life

Summary

This week reading start when Thomas and Minho return to tell the good news about the Griever hole they discovered and they found out two things: The girl was awake and the doors did not close that night. The girl named Teresa become Thomas’ friend, and that night the Grievers appeared and just took one person: Gally. The next day Thomas had an idea: they should compare the maps of each day of the maze. They discover a few words that did not make sense so Thomas had another risky idea. The next night he got a Griever attention and he made it stun him on purpose. After all the process of pain he recovered and he had the memories that where needed to get out of the maze.

Interesting Thought Throughout The Book

“‘Slim it, boys! I just wanted to see if they went towards the Cliff. Towards the Griever Hole.’

‘And?’ Thomas said.

‘Bingo.’ Minho wiped sweat from his forehead.”(Dashner 261)

Minho is one of the most smart and brave person in the glade. He risked his life following the grievers just to get important information for the entire glade. I do not think I could had done something similar; I would not had the guts to follow a Griever.

“They needed more clues about the code. They needed Memories. So, he was going to get stung by a Griever. Go through the Changing. On purpose.”(Dashner 291)

I wish that I could be as brave as Thomas, first entering the maze at night, then help Alby, defeating the grievers, and now decided to combat a griever just to be stung by him. He is also smart because he always have plans that works perfectly. When I read this I did not knew why he was decided to do that but I knew that he was going to work and help them with solving the maze.

Final Ideas And Conclusions

As the entire book, these chapters had just being as exiting. I love how people in the maze risk their lives just to get out as soon as possible. It is easy to see how people help each other. No one does something for his own benefit, they always think in the entire Glade. I predict that at the end of the book Thomas is going to scape. I cant wait to know!
